Union and Jordan Brand returned for a second collab, this time on the Air Jordan 4! I picked up the Union-exclusive pair, which was done in the “Guava Ice” colourway which I’m covering in my latest review! Done in a vintage look, these incorporate a few changes to the traditional look of the Jordan 4 including a stitched down tongue that had the sneaker world in a frenzy, for both good and bad reasons. Watch my video to learn more and let me know how you feel about these down below!
Ronnie Fieg and Asics teamed up again to release the Tokyo Trio collection, consisting of three pairs of Gel-Lyte IIIs. Arguably the most sought after of the pack, which I’m covering in my lastest review, is the “252.1” colourway, which is a nod to the first Asics collab Fieg ever worked on, stretching back to his days working at David Z. Check out my detailed review to learn more and to see how they look on feet!

My newest pickup is another colourway of the New Balance 992. This Made in USA pair features a bright yellow mesh and suede upper with hits of grey accents. Definitely a head turner, this adds another dope colourway to New Balance’s strong lineup of the 992 model. Watch my review to get a closer look and share your opinions down below!
2020 has been another crazy year in sneakers – with heat drops coming at us week after week. Lost in the shuffle though has been a ton of super dope releases that a lot of people have been overlooking. Recently, I sat down with Complex to give them my list of my Top 10 sleeper pickups of the year (so far). It was very tough narrowing them down but after getting past all the traditional “hype” releases like Jordan 1s, Dunks, Yeezys, etc. I think I was left with a pretty solid list.

The Civilist x Nike SB Dunk Low Pro dropped to end off August, and it’s one of the wildest executed Dunks I’ve seen in a while! Featuring a black leather upper that reveals a heat map graphic underneath when exposed to direct heat, these are inspired by Germany in the late 80s / early 90s following the fall of the Berlin Wall and the rise in their Techno scene. Check out my review for a closer look!
One of the loudest Air Jordan 1s I’ve ever seen released this past Friday with the “Bio Hack” colourway. Inspired by the busy streets and lifestyle of Tokyo, these incorporate a variety of colours and materials, resulting in an in-your-face Jordan 1 that people are clamoring for. Check out my review to get a close up look and let me know what you think about this pair in the comments below!
My newest review covers the Air Jordan 3 Retro SE “Denim”. This clean pair of Jordan 3s replaces the traditional elephant print with Denim, and adds more uniqueness by including a translucent heel tab that showcases both Nike Air and Jumpman branding. Watch my video to get a good look at these up close, and let me know if you guys are feeling the look of this pair! Was this a cop or a drop?
Featuring an Indigo-dyed upper that will fade over time, the Air Jordan 12 “Indigo” dropped in late August, and is the topic of my latest review! Looking very similar to the original “Obsidian” colourway from 1997, these feature beautiful shades of blue contrasted with white leather. Check out my video to get a closer look and share your opinions on these down below!
My latest review covers the “Samba” Dunk Low from Nike. Originally releasing in 2001 as a Japan-exclusive, these return in 2020 with a wider release! Featuring blue, red and grey leather overlays, they continue Nike’s strong Dunk releases throughout 2020. Check out my video and share your comments down below!
